DS has "words" for things, they are barely recognizable, but he's consistent with them. We do some baby sign language which he uses a lot and I've read that sometimes that can delay some speech since they are able to communicate.If she is vocal I wouldn't worry about it quite yet, I think that if you don't hear more words by 18months then it would be something worth mentioning to your doctor.

My little girl jabbers a lot, but does papa, mama, out, up, cracker, and bubbles. Not kidding you though they all started coming so quick!! Once one word came all kinds keep coming! They all learn at their own pace!
